WinHelpPlz3 Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 I have a 1999 gateway desktop. I put the hard drives in my new computer to format them with windows xp. When I put them back in my old computer, i booted from the win xp disk to clean install, and my computer would not recognize the hard drives.Other things that have happened: Tried booting from xp disk. Sometimes it loads and then all across the screen it has "01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01..."Other times it says something like this: Ultra66 BIOS - - - Promise Technology Detecting_There is one more thing that might have to do with this....I tried installing multible versions of linux on this computer, did that mess up the hard drive(s) in someway?Any Help would be appreciated :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
